O aleitamento materno exclusivo (AME) é uma prática que traz grandes benefícios tanto para o recém-nascido quanto para a mãe. Neste sentido, o objetivo do estudo foi determinar a associação entre o AME e os sintomas depressivos das mulheres. Foi realizada uma análise de dados secundários da Pesquisa Demográfica e de Saúde Familiar do Peru, na qual foram identificadas as variáveis para determinar a AME, sua duração e frequência. Por outro lado, os sintomas depressivos das mulheres foram avaliados por meio do teste PHQ-9. Foi observada uma prevalência de AME de 28%, a maior proporção de participantes por 12 meses com uma frequência de 5 a 9 vezes por dia. Descobriu-se que a AME reduziu a probabilidade de sintomas depressivos em 43% (OR:0,57, IC95% 0,54-0,84), assim como os componentes sociodemográficos, estado civil separado (OR:1. 67, IC95% 1,06 - 2,61), viuvez (OR: 5,09, IC95% 1,86 - 13,94), violência doméstica (OR: 2,39, IC95% 1,48 - 3,87) e hipertensão (OR: 2,16, IC95% 1,22 - 3,83). Conclui-se que a AME é um fator que reduz a probabilidade de sintomas depressivos em mulheres de forma independente, essa prática é importante para o desenvolvimento do recém-nascido e para o bem-estar da mãe, o que deve ser reforçado especialmente no primeiro nível de atendimento.
